Miguel Lopez , LPC

Miguel Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who offers telehealth therapy throughout the state. He earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio, where he developed clinical skills working with a wide range of people seeking counseling services.

Miguel has supported individuals facing depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, grief and loss, and questions related to sexual identity and gender. He takes an eclectic approach to therapy, tailoring methods to each person instead of applying a one-size-fits-all model. Among the modalities he draws from are Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, mindfulness practices, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Existential Therapy.

His work centers on giving clients practical tools and building blocks to manage everyday challenges. He uses questions and reflective feedback to foster introspection and awareness, and he challenges patterns that keep people stuck while encouraging behaviors that align with their goals. Empathy and a touch of humor are part of his counseling style to help form a strong therapeutic alliance.

Outside of his clinical work Miguel enjoys gardening, knitting, bowling, and spending time with his partner, two cats, and a dog.

Therapeutic approaches offered in online sessions

Miguel works with several established approaches that translate well to online formats. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the client leads the pace and content of sessions. This approach can be especially helpful for issues around identity, self-esteem, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill building. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment patterns, often used to improve relationship connections and address intimacy-related concerns, family dynamics, and attachment issues.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Miguel will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then recommend techniques or combinations of methods that best fit the client. Together they shape a plan that feels manageable and relevant.

Online therapy with Miguel is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and easier scheduling. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent care across distances, making therapy more accessible for clients who need convenience, varied session formats, or ongoing support between appointments.
